Maths in 2J

This week we modelled and used strategies for division including sharing and arrays.
We shared a collection of objects into equal groups and then into equal rows as an array.
Have a look at some of our pictures where we demonstrated our understanding of division.
Our teacher was very proud of our work this week.

Book Week

This week at SJV we celebrated Book Week. The theme was Reading Across The Universe. We had fun decorating our classroom door with pictures of all our favourite books.

 

On Wednesday we dressed up as our favourite book characters. Everyone was very creative and we loved showing our costumes on the book parade.

Exploring Moreton Bay

Last Thursday Year 2's explored the mud flats in Moreton Bay. Mr MacPherson, a science teacher helped us to find crabs, sea snails, shells, oysters, worms and a clicking prawn. We also found lots of mangrove seeds. We learnt a lot about Moreton Bay. It is an extraordinary marine park! What do you know about Moreton Bay?

Japanese Lanterns

Last week artists from Raw Art visited our school to work in each classroom. 2J were lucky to have a great artist called Leona. She showed us how to make our very own Japanese lanterns. When we finished we hung them together in our classroom. We think they look great, what do you think?

Andrew Chinn Concert

 Last Monday Andrew Chinn visited our school. In the morning we had a music and dancing workshop with him and then in the afternoon we had a concert with the whole school performing.  It was great fun. Benjamin got to wear one of the colourful silk vests. What is your favourite Andrew Chinn song?
